Atheroprotective flow alters EZH2/H3K27me3 dependent transcriptional profile in human endothelial cells

ABSTRACT: Atherosclerosis is a focal disease that preferentially develop in the regions of atheroprone disturbed flow, but less in regions of atheroprotective laminar flow. The mechanisms by which atheroprotective laminar flow prevents atherosclerosis at the epigenetic level remain largely unknown. In this study, we observed that laminar flow decreased histone methyltransferase EZH2, which imposes a repressive epigenetic mark of histone 3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) onto target gene promoters, leading to transcriptional silencing. To evaluate the effect of atheroprotective flow on EZH2 and H3K27me3 dependent genome-wide transcriptional profile, we performed RNA-sequencing study on laminar flow and EZH2 siRNA treated human endothelial cells. Venn diagram was used to compare the common regulated genes by both laminar flow and EZH2 depletion. We found atheroprotective flow and EZH2 depletion altere endothelial gene landscape, which include upregulating atheroprotective genes while downregulating pro-atherosclerotic genes.

Integrated Proteomics and Metabolomics Analysis Reveals Differential Lipid Metabolism in HUVEC under high and low shear stress

Project description:<div><b>OBJECTIVE:</b> Atherosclerotic plaque development is closely associated with the hemodynamic forces applied to endothelial cells (EC). Among these, shear stress (SS) plays a key role in disease development since changes in flow intensity and direction could stimulate an atheroprone or atheroprotective phenotype. EC under low or oscillatory SS (LSS) shows upregulation of inflammatory, adhesion and cellular permeability molecules. On the contrary, cells under high or laminar SS (HSS) increase their expression of protective and anti-inflammatory factors. The mechanism behind SS regulation of an atheroprotective phenotype is not completely elucidated.</div><div><b>APPROACH and RESULTS:</b> Here we used proteomics and metabolomics to better understand the changes in endothelial cells (HUVECs) under in vitro LSS and HSS that promote an atheroprone or atheroprotective profile and how these modifications can be connected to atherosclerosis development. Our data showed that lipid metabolism, in special cholesterol metabolism, was downregulated in cells under LSS. The LDLR showed significant alterations both at the quantitative expression level, as well as regarding post-translational modifications. Under LSS, LDLR was seen at lower concentrations and with a different glycosylation profile. Finally, modulating LDLR with atorvastatin led to the recapitulation of a HSS metabolic phenotype in EC under LSS.</div><div><b>CONCLUSIONS:</b> Altogether, our data suggest that there is significant modulation of lipid metabolism in endothelial cells under different SS intensities and that this could contribute to the atheroprone phenotype of LSS. Statin treatment was able to partially recover the protective profile of these cells.</div>

Time series RNA profiling of endotheilal cells in response to atheroprone and atheroprotective flows

Project description:To profile shear stress-regulated endothelial transcriptomes, we performed RNA-seq with HUVECs subjected to different shear flow conditions, including atheroprotective pulsatile shear (PS, 12±4 dyn/cm2) and atheroprone oscillatory shear (OS, 0.5±4 dyn/cm2), or kept as static control (ST) for four time periods (1, 4, 12 and 24 hours)

Transcriptional adaptations of HUVECs exposed to high and low fluid shear stress

Project description:The goal of this study was to identify gene signatures in HUVECs exposed to atheroprone low laminar shear stress (LSS) or atheroprotective high laminar shear stress (HSS). The obtained data was used to verify that HSS and LSS application induces gene expression patterns similar to more complex pulsatile and oscillatory flow, respectively.

Physiological profile of the coronary artery and internal thoracic artery endothelial cells as a basis for the structural and functional congrunce of the arterio-arterial continuum

Project description:Currently, it is well established that human endothelial cells (ECs) are characterised by a significant heterogeneity between distinct blood vessels, e.g., arteries, veins, capillaries, and lymphatic vessels. Further, even ECs belonging to the same lineage but grown under different flow patterns (e.g., laminar and oscillatory or turbulent flow) ostensibly have distinct molecular profiles defining their physiological behaviour. Human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAEC) and human internal thoracic artery endothelial cells (HITAEC) represent two cell lines inhabiting atheroprone and atheroresistant blood vessels (coronary artery and internal thoracic artery, respectively). Resistance of the internal mammary artery to atherosclerosis has been largely attributed to the protective phenotype of HITAEC which reportedly produce higher amounts of vasodilators including nitric oxide (NO) through the respective signaling pathways. However, this hypothesis has not been adequately addressed hitherto as proteomic profiling of HCAEC and HITAEC in a head-to-head comparison setting has not been performed.

Transcriptome profiling of murine aortic endothelium with combined deletion for three MEF2 transcription factors: Mef2a, Mef2c and Mef2d

Project description:Atherosclerosis predominantly forms in regions of oscillatory shear stress while regions of laminar shear stress are protected. This protection is partly through the endothelium in laminar flow regions expressing an anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombotic gene expression program. Several molecular pathways transmitting these distinct flow patterns to the endothelium have been defined. Our objective is to define the role of the MEF2 family of transcription factors in promoting an atheroprotective endothelium. Endothelial-specific Mef2a -c and -d deficiency results in systemic inflammation, hemorrhage, thrombocytopenia, leukocytosis, and rapid lethality at 11 days post-injection. We collected RNA from the aortic endothelium at day 7 and process for transcriptome analysis in order to understand the phenotype and mechanism.

Statins modulate endothelial transcriptional profile by inhibiting EZH2

Project description:Statins protect against the development of atherosclerosis via cholesterol-dependent and –independent mechanisms. Understanding the molecular mechanisms mediating simvastatin induced atheroprotective effects is critical for designing anti-atherosclerotic agents. Here, we showed that simvastatin decreases the expression of the Polycomb methyltransferase EZH2 in endothelial cells. To better understand the influence of the simvastatin-induced EZH2 downregulation on endothelial transcriptome, we performed RNA-sequencing study to evaluate differential gene expression after overexpression of EZH2 in the presence of simvastatin treatment. We found simvastatin treatment altered a subset of genes that can be rescued with EZH2 overexpression. Therefore, simvastatin treated endothelial cells display an atheroprotective phenotype by downregulating EZH2.

Longitudinal shear stress response in human aortic endothelial cells to atheroprone and atheroprotective conditions

Project description:The goal of this study was to find longitudinal transcriptional response of human aortic endothelial cells (HAECs) to pulsatile shear (PS) and oscillatory shear (OS) and compare them with the responses in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) [GSE103672]. PS is associated with an atheroprotective endothelial phenotype, while OS is associated with an atheroprone endothelial phenotype. Using RNASeq method (single-ended 75-bp sequencing on Illumina Hi-seq 4000 instrument), we measured the transcriptional response at 3 time-points (1, 4, and 24 hrs) under PS and OS conditions. Measurements were also taken under static condition (ST, no flow) at t = 0 hr. Three replicates were used for each condition/time-point. Our results indicate that the responses of HAECs and HUVECs are qualitatively similar for endothelial-function relevant genes and several important pathways with a few exceptions, thus demonstrating that HUVECs can be used as a model to investigate the effects of shear on arterial ECs, with some reservations. Our findings show that HAECs exhibit an earlier response or faster kinetics as compared to HUVECs. The comparative analysis in this study offers new insights into the mechanisms of common and disparate stress responses across these two endothelial cell types.
